Recipes and photographs from an Asheville Foodie
Enjoy this cooking blog with tons of sweet AND savory recipes. I use down-to-earth language and love to create my own recipes as well as recipe-test other chef's work.
My husband and I went camping this weekend and we wanted to make a hot breakfast. We started with a little olive oil in a cast iron skillet & added lots of tomatoes, one medium sized onion and some salt and pepper. We let it soften and then reduced the tomato liquid. We made 4 "cups" into the tomato onion mixture and added the eggs. Once cooked to our liking we ate the eggs with bread we toasted over the fire. It was a really delicious and simple breakfast!
It's tough to beat a bread salad with tomatoes & bacon! This makes for a super-easy and delicious dinner or weekend lunch.
My ratios were equal parts toasted bread to tomatoes (probably 3 cups of each). I dressed the tomatoes with olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt and pepper, and basil. And, then I tossed the toasted bread and chopped, cooked bacon into the tomatoes.
Ina Garten has a more elaborate panzanella recipe: here
. Whichever you decide to create, definitely use good tomatoes otherwise it won't be worth eating!
